Ok, but no shade, all gravel sites. 1 bathroom stall with a shower, laundry available. No frills but in rv we are self contained. Food options in town EXTREMELY LIMITED based on day and time

The owners are very friendly and helpful. The sights are big and LEVEL! The sites are gravel as are the access roads. Wi-Fi is Okay at about 5-6 mbps good enough for most. If you have T-Mobile you are in luck, over 500 mbps, wow. We just hot spotted our internet. They now have a Restroom/Shower room combo and a laundry. Both were clean and felt almost new. Our only complaint is with the grounds. Every time we went outside we brought those little sticker things back into the coach. Ouch!! So close to 5 stars!

The bathroom was very clean. Smelled nice, too. Close to attractions. Check in was easy. New Materials were in place to upgrade roads, paths and campsites. Enjoyed my visit. Thanks

Overall we were very happy with our stay at Davis Mountain RV Park. Checking in was a breeze, and the site was quiet despite being right off the highway. Our pull-through site had enough room for both our 21 foot travel trailer and our pickup truck. The bathroom and shower were really clean, and you could tell that they make sure to keep them clean regularly. I particularly liked the view of the Davis Mountains behind the park and the park's proximity to Fort Davis and Davis Mountains State Park. It made for a great jumping off point to McDonald Observatory, Marfa, and Alpine, too.

Man oh man this is a late review! I meant to post this the second we left the park February 21, 2023 but life happens! This is a fantastic stop off for visiting Ft Davis. The best part of this RV park is Buster the owner! We had a broken leaf spring and he helped us for hours trying to get it changed out. He is a sweetheart of a man and was really concerned about us being whole as we left the campground. He brought tools and was hands on helping us which blew our minds. So awesome, so kind and so helpful! Thank you so much Buster!
